Michael Storm (warlock)

Michael Stormrolls 1d20 + 4, getting 5+4 =9...sucks dont it guys
Grondrolls 1d20 + 3 + 5, getting [5,3,5] = (13)

Finn Hunter

OOC: As I said in my post earlier, Finn will probably be going to bed around 9 or 10, as I think he has the morning watch with Marienna. So you will find him swaying gently in his hammock in time with the rocking of the ship to the waves, unless of course, the captain calls for additional hands on deck because of something occurring.

Rook

Rook will try to grapple the young man, as well --

Rook rolls 1d20+3+2, getting [6,3,2] = (11).

OOC: Sucks to be both of us!

 

[J. Alexander]

Michael Storm (warlock)

OCC: any hope on any pluses from the friendly dm for suprise or flanking

Morwyn

OOC: I need to know where everyone plans to be from 11:15 to 3:00 in the morning. James if you would be so kind as to summarize the watch schedule for that time I'd be most greatful.

1st watch is the only one on duty from 10p til 2a. That's Morwyn's watch, with Terry.

From 2a til 6a, both 1st and 2nd watch (Radoon and Master Abelard) will be on duty.

Finn has 3rd watch with Marienna, and I'd expect both of them to be resting; especially if either needs 8hrs to refresh PsiPoints, or Spell Slots, as this is the only 8hr off cycle they'll have.

I don't speak for Michael or Rook.

Ambush at dinner

Without warning Michael reaches out to grapple Christopher as he pours wine. It should have a simple action, Christopher ought to have been taken by surprise and flanked, but it didn't happen that way. He seemed to have some uncanny ability to avoid being flanked or surprised. Further, the little man is inhumanly quick (22 dex.) Instead, he found your feeble grapple attempts an opportunity to fight back. First, he tosses (1d20+7=16) the wine at Michael, but it misses and simply soaks the wall behind. A few drops of the dark rich wine fall upon Michael's sleeve. Next as Rook reaches for him he
swings (1d20+7=19) a fist and connects with his thigh; the blow stings (1d2+1=2), but the halfling's little fist does little real harm. (It is leathal damage--he has improved unarmed strike.) Finally, Grond also makes a failing grab for the lithe little man, but he too is foiled by a
blow (1d20+7=25) to the shin (1d2+1=3)
Then Christopher tumbles(1d20+18=28) between Grond's legs and goes for the door getting it open and crossing the threshhold. (Should have been 30, I missed a synergy.)

OOC: During the Halfling's tumble you may all choose to take an attack of opportunity. However, unless you have a weapon out, and I don't believe you do, you will be subject to another attack of opportunity from the Halfling. Unless of course you also have improved unarmed strike and assuming he has some attacks of opportunity left. Am I reading the rules for attacks of opportunity correctly? Even though you are making an attack of opp. it draws one back because you are effectively attacking an armed opponent while unarmed? Anyone disagree with that reading of the rules? His AC for your attacks of opportunity will be 22 for Rook and Michael and 23 for Grond.

Michael Storm (warlock)

Michale will throw Eldritch Blast Michael Stormrolls 1d20 + 9, getting [17,9] = (26) and doing
Micahel Stormrolls 3d6+1, getting [4,4,2,1] = (11) damage.

Hopefully this will at least stun him somewhat

Grond will attempt to grab him once again...MIcahel Stromrolls 1d20 +8, getting [13,8] = (21)Grond -tackle,, so i guess he missess unless i manage to make him stumble

Rook

OOC: You're far more up on the rules than I am -- I've not read all the FAQ's etc. It looks to me like (if one has Combat Reflexes) one gets one AoA/Round/Dex Modifier, plus the normal AoA. However, it is still limited to one per round per opportunity (you can't use it as a cheap way to attack an opponent multiple times). It looks like you could read it either way -- technically, attacking him bare handed provokes another AoA, but if he's already used one on us, it could be argued that he doesn't get another one -- in fact, I'd argue that using an AoA should never provoke an AoA. I'll be OK with it whichever way you decide.

BTW, Rook's AC is 22, 23 w/ Dodge (as he's only facing one opponent, I'd guess he'd use it) so did the 19 hit him (are there bonuses you didn't post?).

Rook rolls 1d20+3+2, getting [4,3,2] = (9) to grapple him (Back to the old *&^%$#@! rolls!)

I'll also yell out for help as I attempt to grapple him.

Michael Storm (warlcokc)

OCC: any chance we can get another attack of opportuinty as he has to move the blankets out of the way to reach the door handle etc...remeber the door was coverd with blankets from the inside to prevent sound...

 

[Scotley]

OOC: I took Rook's AC from the posting in the Rogue's gallery and got a 19, so you may wish to update. You may ignore the damage. I think I'll let the extra attacks of opportunity stand for now given that it only happens when someone takes the feat to get extras and has enough dex to capitalize on it like this guy. To do otherwise would make the feat pretty useless.
